Asked about this on the DM forum, but i'll try here too.
How much do stock ego 07's go for (bare bone, no special anno, etc.):
1. With stock barrel
2. No barrel
3. Even trade for a DM7, or would someone be adding?

Isn't the point of this to be appraised and not just go to the "factory standard" of approximate prices? I thought this thread was about people asking how much an upped gun with some marks and knicks or trades are appraised at, not just "first post..."
Just my two cents.

Truth. Like in the shocker appraisal thread, you get actual appraisals based on which shocker it is, what ups it has, condition, etc. Not just a flat statement of "$200-$250"

Should I continue looking in to trading my Axe (Redline, cp no-rise feedneck, infamous boss bolt/spring kit, virtue laser eyes) for an Ego 9 if I shot an Ego 8 and didn't like the way it shot? Mind you, it had problems where it just wasn't firing half the time, but I think that was the hopper's fault. It just left a bad taste in my mouth.

Will an Ego 9 shoot much better than my Axe (specifically with the Boss bolt, it's much smoother than stock), or at least better than an Ego 8?

1. The prices on Page 1 indicate LNIB markers with case, manual, hex tools, oil, barrel and marker in mint condition. If your setup is less than such it should be priced accordingly.

5. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder; just because you like a particular design / anno / cosmetic does not mean someone else will.

6. Remember MSRP; just because it's a PL or SL or custom, did it cost any more MSRP ? No? Then don't expect your marker to be any more.

7. Just because prices are from 2011 doesn't mean they should change that much; was there a new 2013 Ego ? No? Well then why should prices change that much ?

If anything, markers should be worth even less; looking at DYE, the new 2013 PGA retails for around $ 650, about half of what they were originally retailing for.
Therefore every marker made previously should depreciate accordingly?

The SL is always the top of the line and the best paintball gun made, every year since it was first released. You get what you pay for and Bespoke parts are full of win."

Someone with a geo+ gst gr2 wants me to add $150. Seems to me like the value should be closer.

First of all, not 1 of 1. It's custom anodized. Big difference. Second of all, I doubt it's a true Geo+. 95% of all the Geos advertised as a + are not. Lastly, your gun is worth about $350, trade value for both is higher, so $100 would be more appropriate.
